Bile acid malabsorption, which in patients leads to excessive fecal bile acid excretion and diarrhea, is characterized by a vicious cycle in which the feedback regulation of bile acid synthesis is interrupted, resulting in additional bile acid production. Feedback regulation of bile acid synthesis is under the control of an endocrine pathway wherein activation of the nuclear bile acid receptor, farnesoid X receptor (FXR), induces enteric expression of the hormone, fibroblast growth factor 15 (FGF15). In liver, FGF15 acts together with FXR-mediated expression of small heterodimer partner to repress bile acid synthesis. Here, we show that the FXR-FGF15 pathway is disrupted in mice lacking apical ileal bile acid transporter, a model of bile acid malabsorption. Treatment of Asbt-/- mice with either a synthetic FXR agonist or FGF15 downregulates hepatic cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase mRNA levels, decreases bile acid pool size, and reduces fecal bile acid excretion. These findings suggest that FXR agonists or FGF15 could be used therapeutically to interrupt the cycle of excessive bile acid production in patients with bile acid malabsorption.  相似文献

To improve on the drug properties of GSK8062 1b, a series of heteroaryl bicyclic naphthalene replacements were prepared. The quinoline 1c was an equipotent FXR agonist with improved drug developability parameters relative to 1b. In addition, analog 1c lowered body weight gain and serum glucose in a DIO mouse model of diabetes.  相似文献

To further explore the optimum placement of the acid moiety in conformationally constrained analogs of GW 4064 1a, a series of stilbene replacements were prepared. The benzothiophene 1f and the indole 1g display the optimal orientation of the carboxylate for enhanced FXR agonist potency.  相似文献

Starting from the known FXR agonist GW 4064 1a, a series of stilbene replacements were prepared. The 6-substituted 1-naphthoic acid 1b was an equipotent FXR agonist with improved developability parameters relative to 1a. Analog 1b also reduced the severity of cholestasis in the ANIT acute cholestatic rat model.  相似文献

非酒精性脂肪性肝病(non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, NAFLD)作为一种慢性肝病,在全球的发病率逐年递增。胰岛素抵抗和脂质代谢紊乱,以及随后的炎症反应和纤维化的激活,在其发生发展过程中发挥重要作用。但是对其认识仍很欠缺,且临床尚缺乏有效的药物。科研人员正极力探索NAFLD的相关病因及治疗的新的突破口。胆汁酸是在肝中合成的众多代谢产物之一。除帮助脂肪消化吸收外,胆汁酸还作为信号分子激活胆汁酸受体,一种重要的转录调节因子而发挥效应,对维持机体正常生理代谢至关重要。越来越多的证据表明,胆汁酸受体的功能与NAFLD的发生发展关系密切,研究其相关的作用与功能可为治疗NAFLD提供新见解和药物治疗靶点。本文就胆汁酸受体包括核受体,诸如法尼醇X受体 (farnesoid X receptor, FXR)、孕烷X受体 (pregnane X receptor ,PXR)等,和细胞表面受体,诸如跨膜G蛋白偶联胆汁酸受体5(transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor 5, TGR5)、鞘氨醇-1-磷酸受体2(phingosine-1-phosphate receptor 2, S1PR2)和毒蕈碱胆碱受体3 (M3 muscarinic receptor, M3R)通过调节胆汁酸稳态、脂质和糖代谢、能量代谢、肝的炎症和纤维化等参与NAFLD发病机制的研究进展进行总结,并进一步阐述了胆汁酸受体激动剂对NAFLD的治疗现状,以期更全面地了解NAFLD的发病机制以及为治疗找到更有效的途径。  相似文献

Statins are effective cholesterol-lowering drugs to treat CVDs. Bile acids (BAs), the end products of cholesterol metabolism in the liver, are important nutrient and energy regulators. The present study aims to investigate how statins affect BA homeostasis in the enterohepatic circulation. Male C57BL/6 mice were treated with atorvastatin (100 mg/kg/day po) for 1 week, followed by BA profiling by ultra-performance LC-MS/MS. Atorvastatin decreased BA pool size, mainly due to less BA in the intestine. Surprisingly, atorvastatin did not alter total BAs in the serum or liver. Atorvastatin increased the ratio of 12α-OH/non12α-OH BAs. Atorvastatin increased the mRNAs of the BA-synthetic enzymes cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase (Cyp7a1) (over 10-fold) and cytochrome P450 27a1, the BA uptake transporters Na+/taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide and organic anion transporting polypeptide 1b2, and the efflux transporter multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 in the liver. Noticeably, atorvastatin suppressed the expression of BA nuclear receptor farnesoid X receptor (FXR) target genes, namely small heterodimer partner (liver) and fibroblast growth factor 15 (ileum). Furthermore, atorvastatin increased the mRNAs of the organic cation uptake transporter 1 and cholesterol efflux transporters Abcg5 and Abcg8 in the liver. The increased expression of BA-synthetic enzymes and BA transporters appear to be a compensatory response to maintain BA homeostasis after atorvastatin treatment. The Cyp7a1 induction by atorvastatin appears to be due to suppressed FXR signaling in both the liver and intestine.  相似文献

Bile acids (BAs) are steroid acids found predominantly in the bile of mammals and other vertebrates. Though BAs have been known as digestive juice, recent studies have revealed that BAs act as signaling molecules to control metabolism and inflammation. Today, BAs are considered as potential therapeutic molecules for treatment of complex metabolic liver disease. However, the detergent properties of BAs lead to hepatic injury and intrahepatic cholestasis when BAs are accumulated in the liver with impaired bile flow into gall bladder. Cholestasis is a pathological condition of hepatic retention of cytotoxic bile acids. To date, hydrophilic ursodeoxycholic acid has been currently used to treat cholestasis, but the efficacy of UDCA for cholestasis is still limited. Given that BAs are endogenous ligands of several nuclear receptors, including Farnesoid X receptor and Pregnane X receptor, novel synthetic ligands for those nuclear receptors are promising for the treatment of cholestatic liver diseases.  相似文献

An asymmetric synthetic strategy was designed for the preparation of the four possible diastereoisomers of 3,6-dimethyl-1-(2-methylphenyl)-4-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-4,8-dihydro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-e][1,4]thiazepin-7-one, a non-steroidal FXR agonist, we recently discovered following a virtual screening approach. The results obtained from an AlphaScreen assay clearly demonstrated that only the isomer endowed with 4R,6S absolute configuration is responsible for the biological activity. A deep investigation of the different putative binding modes adopted by these enantiomerically pure ligands using computational modeling studies confirmed the enantioselectivity of FXR towards this class of molecules.  相似文献

The nuclear receptor FXR is the sensor of physiological levels of enterohepatic bile acids, the end products of cholesterol catabolism. Here we report crystal structures of the FXR ligand binding domain in complex with coactivator peptide and two different bile acids. An unusual A/B ring juncture, a feature associated with bile acids and no other steroids, provides ligand discrimination and triggers a pi-cation switch that activates FXR. Helix 12, the activation function 2 of the receptor, adopts the agonist conformation and stabilizes coactivator peptide binding. FXR is able to interact simultaneously with two coactivator motifs, providing a mechanism for enhanced binding of coactivators through intermolecular contacts between their LXXLL sequences. These FXR complexes provide direct insights into the design of therapeutic bile acids for treatment of hyperlipidemia and cholestasis.  相似文献
